This is an interesting one, as we recently chanced across these two white Proton models somewhere in the vicinity of Ara Damansara. For those keeping track would remember that Proton launched the updated Proton Persona in August 2021 and new Saga in May 2022. So, what’s cooking with these two Proton models seen here? According to sources close to the matter, the Persona and Saga seen here is likely testing new electronic stability control (ESC) hardware for the South African market, as Proton re

During the Proton 1 Tank Adventure back in 2019, the lowest fuel consumption recorded in the 2019 Proton Persona 1.6L was 5.03-litre/100 km. However, the drivers were most definitely hypermiling the Persona with the air conditioning off and whatnot. We’ve tested it in normal conditions and here’s our result. As per our SOP (it has always been constant), all tyres were inflated according to the manufacturer's recommended tyre pressure. Then the Proton Persona’s 40-litre fuel tank was brimmed. Dri

The Hyundai Elantra is a pretty left-field choice if you’re looking for a C-segment sedan. However, if you’re interested to get one brand-new, tough luck as it appears the model has been dropped from the Malaysian market. A quick check on the Hyundai website confirms this notion.

The outgoing sixth-generation Elantra was launched in Korea in 2015 befor

After much anticipation, the 2020 Honda Civic facelift is now officially on sale. Honda Malaysia has already announced what’s new in the Civic, but what else is new? On the outside, the facelifted Honda Civic gains a more angular front bumper complete with new fog lamp housing to pair with the new piano black front grille that gives the car a sportier look. The rather plain rear bumper of the pre-facelift Civic gets jacked up with a sliver of chrome trim running across the edge. Honda has also i

Nissan has taken the covers off the all-new 2020 Nissan Sylphy for the North American market, where the model is known as the Sentra. The model will make its public debut later this week at the Los Angeles Auto Show. The model will go on sale in the US early next year, making it the second major market after China to launch the Sylphy/Sentra. The all-new Sylphy gets a new 2.0-litre naturally-aspirated 4-cylinder petrol engine that does 149 hp and 198 Nm. The Nissan Sylphy was last sold in Malays

While the Toyota Vios and Honda City have made a lot of progress, Nissan Almera is still walking on the same pattern and pretty much remain the same as the previous version, except for some minor styling changes. Entering the Malaysian market in 2012, the Almera was boasted of having class-leading rear legroom and boot space under a very competitive price. However, all these selling points were fading out since the launch of the all-new Honda City in 2014. New Toyota Vios also has equipped quiet
